Skip Nymph

The Skip Nymph is a terrific Baetis pattern developed by Skip Morris. It's a fun pattern to tie and works wonderfully. I tie the pattern with a gold bead behind the eye. I start a tan thread behind the bead, taking it back just short of the hook bend and then taking several wraps back towards the bead. I tie in a piece of extra-small gold wire to the far side of the hook and wrap the thread back to near the hook bend. Use 7-9 pheasant tail fibers to create a short tail on the top of the hook shank and pull the butt ends back over the hook bend, securing them in that direction. Tightly dub the thread with a light tan Awesome Possum dubbing and take wraps forward to the two-thirds point, creating a narrow body with a light taper. Fold the pheasant tail butt fibers over the top center of the hook shank and take open wraps of the gold wire over the top of the fibers. This will create a ribbing and secure the pheasant tail fibers in place. Once again, fold the remainder of the fibers back towards the hook bend and secure them in that direction. Next, dub the thread with brown Awesome Possum dubbing and create a beefy thorax towards the bead, leaving a little space behind the bead. Now, take a Hungarian Partridge feather and clip out a chunk of the tip, leaving a V-shaped gap with an even number of fibers on either side. Straddle the V behind the bead - pointing downwards and towards the hook bend. Secure the feather so there are fibers on either side of the hook. Use the stem to shorten the fibers - if needed - until they extend just beyond the thorax, and remove the butt end of the feather. Pull the pheasant tail fibers over the top center of the thorax - splitting the partridge fibers - and secure them behind the bead to create the wing case. Now, remove the butt ends, clean them up, and whip finish the fly. Finally, push the fibers of the tail upward. Use scissors to remove a few of the fibers in the center of the bunch to create a split tail with a similar number of fibers on each side.
